Lucky Vitamin Presents: Body Basix

Filed Under: Sports Nutrition at 11:00 am | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Lucky Vitamin is happy to present Body Basix supplements to our customers.

Body Basix provides products to help you reach your health, wellness and fitness goals. The company offers sports nutrition supplements for everybody, and wants to make performance nutrition easy to understand and easy to use for everyday athletes and fitness enthusiasts.

Body Basix features a simple icon system which immediately communicates the benefits of each respective product, thereby removing confusion. There are six core components of nutrition: protein, carbohydrate, fat, vitamins, minerals and water. These six components, independently and collectively, represent the six categories of performance nutrition products: hydration, nutrition, wellness, recovery, strength and energy.

Hydration: exercise challenges your body’s natural hydration balance by producing sweat which drains the needed supply of electrolytes and minerals.

Recovery: replenishing your nutrients immediately after exercise will help you recover much faster and reduce muscle soreness.

Nutrition: for those times when circumstances don’t allow the opportunity for whole foods, choose nutrition products with a short, recognizable list of ingredients.

Strength: complex carbohydrates and high quality proteins are necessary to build muscle and for lean body mass.

Wellness: when we can’t get all necessary nutrients from whole food sources, wellness products like multi-vitamins ensure your body has what it needs for optimal health.

Energy: help optimize your body’s performance. The correct carbohydrates are necessary so that your body doesn’t borrow protein as a fuel.

Lucky Vitamin is now offering Body Basix supplements at our discounted prices.

Lucky Vitamin is proud to present another top quality brand of sport supplements: AI Sports Nutrition.

Anabolic Innovations Sports Nutrition offers a unique line of supplements including muscle growth products, fat burners, energy enhancers, stacks and much more. The company is dedicated to providing cutting edge supplements which can help customers reach their goals every day.

The ground work for Anabolic Innovations Sports Nutrition started over 35 years ago when a scrawny 12 year old wanted desperately to gain muscle size and strength. After years of hit or miss training and supplements, this 12 year old progressed to studying sports nutrition, opening gyms health clubs and supplement stores. However, he still wasn’t satisfied with what was available and started with a simple idea of using the best ingredients to achieve the best results. That goal became his focus and, after many years, it has become AI Sports Nutrition.

You can try Maniac, one of the best pre-workout supplement lines, available in lemonade and raspberry, or a post workout product such as RecoverPro to help muscle growth.

One of the top selling AI Sports Nutrition products is HGHpro, an all natural growth hormone product that actually does what it claims to do. HGHpro focuses solely on elevating HGH levels in the body using the highest extracts of ingredients available, while other growth hormone products fall short.

The Secret of Nitric Oxide Enhancers

Filed Under: Sports Nutrition at 4:00 pm | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Nitric Oxide enhancers have become popular among strength athletes but the way this interesting supplement works in the human body is still a secret to many of us.

Nitric Oxide supplements, commonly abbreviated as “NO”, are geared towards accelerated muscle growth and prolonged stamina during endurance activities.

Nitric Oxide has been determined to control the circulation of blood and may actually increase blood flow.  It also sends signals between nerve cells, and can function to deliver more nutrients to muscle cells, therefore, helping the muscles to increase in size when you workout.

Considered an antianginal product because it causes vasodilation (the widening of blood vessels), Nitric Oxide can help with ischemic pain (known as angina) by decreasing the cardiac workload.

More specifically, Nitric Oxide acts in the circulatory system, blood vessels and capillaries, causing them to ‘relax’ and, as they relax, they open up, allowing more blood to flow. By dilating the veins, Nitric Oxide lowers arterial pressure and left ventricular filling pressure. This vasodilation does not decrease the volume of blood the heart pumps but rather it decreases the force the heart muscle must exert to pump the same volume of blood.

In addition, Nitric Oxide is not just an important neurotransmitter, but is in fact the most widespread signaling molecule in the body, helping to control a range of processes in the body, including nerve and immune function, and tissue formation. When NO was first discovered to be the neurotransmitter to erectile tissue, it spawned the development of Viagra and other similar drugs and supplements.

Shake, Shake, Shake

Filed Under: Sports Nutrition,Water Purification and Storage at 11:00 am | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

If you are still mixing your shakes the old fashion way, it’s time to give “shaker cups” a try and you’ll be amazed by these efficient and practical products.

Shakers have become a “must have” item for active people and fitness enthusiasts. Running, biking, fitness classes and weight lifting are activities that may require supplementation for optimal results. Powder supplements generally offer the best formulas and are easily absorbed but preparation has always been an issue.

Now, with an easy-to-use shaker, workout enthusiasts can enjoy a smooth mix with no mess, quickly transforming powder supplement into delicious drinks.

The Sundesa BlenderBottle has been the most successful model as this unique, affordable and innovative portable mixer works without batteries and no cord. It’s powerful enough to mix the thickest ingredients with ease thanks to a magic ball named BlenderBall. Made of surgical-grade stainless steel, the ball wire whisk makes short work of your mixing needs and is designed to remain in the cup until you’ve fully enjoyed all the contents. Available in two sizes and in many different colors, the Blender Bottle fits most car drink holders.

On the other hand, Fit & Fresh also offers a premium line of shaker cups including stainless steel models. The Fit & Fresh Power Mixer Pro can mix powdered drinks, batters, dressings, omelets and more. The enhanced motor instantly blends powdered drinks, combining a fast and powerful mixer with a convenient 20oz. supplement cup. An innovative triple fan wand reaches to the bottom of a cup for a smooth mix, combining liquid and powder, simply using AAA batteries. All Fit & Fresh products are BPA (bisphenol A) free, and meet FDA regulations for food grade plastic.

Lucky Vitamin Presents: Click

Filed Under: Sports Nutrition at 4:00 pm | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Lucky Vitamin is introducing a revolutionary brand of protein drinks: Click.

Click espresso protein drinks are designed to help curb food cravings, give a boost of energy, and support the body before and after workouts. Packed with 15 grams of protein, 23 vitamins and minerals and two shots of espresso, each serving of Click has hours’ worth of energy with only 120 calories and 7 grams of sugar.

Not just another protein powder, Click is the ideal nutritional beverage for active individuals who are looking for a meal replacement, quick snack or protein supplement. Click can be enjoyed hot as a coffee substitute or cold as a gourmet frappe drink. Moreover, it’s a much cheaper alternative to high priced drinks offered by chain coffee stores, with a cost of roughly a dollar per serving.

Available in mocha and vanilla latte, Click provides an energy lift that comes on quickly and lasts all day without the jitters and empty calories associated with sugary, canned energy drinks. It contains coffee, a natural appetite suppressant, and can stimulate thermogenesis, the way the body produces heat and energy by digesting food and burning calories.

Recent studies suggest that a diet high in protein promotes natural weight loss by curbing the appetite and reducing calorie intake. When combined with an active lifestyle, diets high in protein may also help reduce blood fat levels and maintain lean tissue.

Click is changing the energy drink environment by demonstrating that protein, great taste, and energy can go hand-in-hand. Click offers protein and coffee all-in-one, providing the nutrition and weight management benefits of a protein shake with the energy and taste of a gourmet coffee house drink.

Lucky Vitamin Presents: 4 Sports Life

Filed Under: Sports Nutrition at 5:00 pm | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Lucky Vitamin is proud to introduce 4 Sports Life products to our customers.

4 Sport Life is a dynamic, innovative company dedicated to the development, design and marketing of groundbreaking new generation of shaker-systems.

4 Sports Life had a goal to create an entirely new shaker system in order to simplify this impractical and clumsy procedure. The company wanted to develop a product to minimize the needless transportation of three different components shaker, powder supplement and liquid, as well as eliminating any possibility of contamination in the shake or soiling at the place or preparation.

The concept for this cutting edge shaker was successfully patented in 2005 and followed by one year of further ergonometric and technical development in partnership with world-renowned EDAG Engineering & Design AG in Germany, in order to synchronize perfect functionality and exclusive design. The result is a vanguard product, a stylish and unique high-tech sports drink shaker: the Shaker Pro.

Nutritional supplement in powder form for sport, diet, wellness and leisure activities are available worldwide. These powder-supplements are mixed or prepared with a liquid before consumption. In this process, it is crucial that these products are prepared freshly and immediately consumed because they can lose their effectiveness and taste in a very short period of time.

4 Sports Life Shaker Pro can create the perfect tasting shake every time with no impurities in the shake, and with minimum effort on preparation. No need to transport separate ingredients with you as the Shaker Pro is an “all in one” solution for everyone with an active lifestyle.

Multipurpose Tribulus Supplements

Filed Under: Sports Nutrition at 5:00 pm | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

Tribulus supplements are one of those products used for several different reasons. The multipurpose tribulus terrestris has been used for centuries to support fertility and rejuvenate the body but many elite athletes use it to support healthy hormone production and increase energy levels.

Tribulus terrestris is made from a flowering plant native to the southern regions of Europe, southern Asia, throughout Africa, and Australia. The Latin name tribulus originally meant “a spiky weapon”.

Tribulus terrestris is a non-hormonal herb labeled as a natural booster for improving male reproductive health and sex drive. Supplementation of tribulus may help restore libido in men, improving and prolonging the duration of erections, and it can also increase sperm count.

One of the major benefits of tribulus is the ability to increase testosterone by increasing the level of Luteinizing Hormones (LH), thereby; it improves male sexual performance and help build muscle.

Some body builders use tribulus to increase intensity during workouts as well as a post cycle therapy or “PCT”. After they have completed an anabolic-steroid cycle, they use it to restore the body’s natural testosterone levels. The active chemical in tribulus terrestris is likely to be protodioscin (PTN), a cousin to DHEA. Bodybuilders have found these increases in testosterone to be a helpful boost, as many of them have been experiencing increases in muscle size, stamina, and strength.

Safe to be taken on a regular basis, no adverse effects from supplementation with tribulus terrestris are rare and tend to be insignificant, with only some users reporting an upset stomach as a side effect.

A Natural Workout Booster: ZMA

Filed Under: Sports Nutrition at 4:00 pm | By: Mauricio Matusiak, Senior Editor

ZMA supplements have been helping athletes, bodybuilders, or workout enthusiasts for many years. Available in supplements stores, ZMA is a testosterone booster which may help to naturally support muscle strength and anabolic sports recovery.

ZMA (Zinc Monomethionine Aspartate and Magnesium Aspartate) is a simple combination of two minerals, zinc and magnesium, and vitamin B-6, designed to maximize absorption and promote recovery from exercise.

These three ingredients play an important role in the human body during physical activity. Zinc plays a central role in the regulation of cellular growth and tissue repair, as well as the maintenance of a healthy immune system. Magnesium is essential for the maintenance of electrolyte balance, energy production and normal neuromuscular function. Vitamin B6 is directly responsible for your metabolism, processing amino acids and several metabolic processes.

Exercise increases the need for zinc and magnesium and ZMA can improve absorption of these two critical minerals. Studies have shown that the aspartate form of this product creates an absorption rate significantly higher than we could achieve by taking regular zinc and magnesium supplements.

Physical activity can lead to the loss of vitamins and minerals making it particularly important for bodybuilding, as the blood sugar level rises and urination increases, increasing the loss of magnesium, zinc, vitamin B, folic acid, and many other nutrients. Although drinking water re-hydrates an athlete, fruit juice or sports drinks are needed to replenish water-soluble nutrients.

ZMA is the ideal supplement to aid in the replenishment of vitamins and minerals and should be taken on an empty stomach, two hours after eating your last meal. This product should not be taken with calcium, cheese, or milk, as calcium blocks the absorption of zinc.
